COMPANY.] BREAKING NEWS THIS NOON, A WOMAN IS FOUND MURDERED INSIDE A VOLUSIA COUNTY HOME AND HER HUSBAND IS UNDER ARREST, ACCUSED OF BEATING HER TO DEATH. GOOD AFTERNOON, I'M JASON GUY. I'M MEREDITH McDONOUGH. INVESTIGATORS MADE THE DISCOVERY AFTER THE SUSPECT CALLED 911 AT THE HOME JUST AFTER 1:00 THIS MORNING. CLAIRE METZ IS JOINING US LIVE FROM SOUTH DAYTONA WITH THE LATEST ON THIS INVESTIGATION. YEAH, ACCORDING TO POLICE, THE COUPLE'S BEEN LIVING HERE IN THIS UNIT AT BRISTOL BAY HERE FOR ABOUT A YEAR. IT WAS JUST THE TWO AT THE TIME OF THE MURDER. INVESTIGATORS SAY HE BEAT HER TO DEATH AND CALLED TO SAY HIS WIFE WAS UNRESPONSIVE. THE CAUSE OF DEATH IS UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME BUT THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF BLUNT TRAUMA. INVESTIGATORS SAY THE WOMAN WAS MURDERED OVERNIGHT. THEY WERE ALERTED TO TROUBLE IN THE APARTMENT THE COUPLE SHARED BY A 911 CALL, A CALL MADE BY CHRISTOPHER HAGUE. OFFICERS FOUND A VIOLENT CRIME SCENE. AFTER TALKING WITH INVESTIGATORS, THEY THOUGHT THERE WAS ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO ARREST AND CHARGE HIM WITH SECOND DEGREE HOMICIDE. ONLY PERSON OTHER THAN THE VICTIM IN THE UNIT WAS HER HUSBAND AND CLAIMS NOT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS. HE HAS A PREVIOUS HISTORY INCLUDING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, RECENTLY ARRESTED IN JANUARY OF D.U.I. OUR OFFICERS HAVE RESPONDED TO THIS ADDRESS SIX TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR FOR VARIOUS DISTURBANCES. NOW, OBVIOUSLY THE VICTIM HAS BEEN TAKEN FOR AN AUTOPSY. AGAIN, POLICE SAY BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA BUT HAVEN'T SAID ANYTHING ABOUT FINDING A MURDER WEAPON AT THIS POINT. WE ALSO KNOW THAT CHRISTOPHER HAGUE SERVED A YEAR IN PRISON FOR THROWING A DEADLY MISSILE, ONE YEAR BACK IN 2005 TO 2006. BUT HAS NOT SERVED PRISON TIME FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. ACCORDING TO POLICE, NO NEIGHBORS HEARD ANYTHING AROUND
